*NURSING > CASE STUDY > Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) UNFOLDING Reasoning | Marcus Jackson, 34 years old > Completed (All)
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) UNFOLDING Reasoning Marcus Jackson is a 34-year-old African American male who served four combat tours of duty in Iraq and Afghanistan. He came to the Veterans Adm... inistration (VA) today for an outpatient appointment because he has not slept more than two hours a night for the past week. This is his fourth clinic visit over the past year with the same symptoms: inability to sleep, nightmares, increasing anxiety, and isolation. Every time he falls asleep, he relives the bombing and has flashbacks of bloody body parts that he witnessed after the explosion. He states that he is more aware of noises and any loud noise such as fireworks and or cars backfiring causes him extreme anxiety. His medications for PTSD have not been helping control his anxiety. He has been spending more time in his room watching TV and avoids spending time with his wife and children. Today he told his wife he should have died and not his friends. His primary care provider encouraged voluntary admission and his wife brought Marcus to the emergency department of the closest VA hospital so he can be admitted. [Show More]
